    Google Location Services.  It’s built in, you just need to switch it on and decide who you want to share with.

    GPS / mobile phone or Satellite tracker?

    GPS/ phones only of any use if you can get a signal so depends on where you’re going.

    You can do this on WhatsApp now.

    Just open a message with somebody or the group that you want to share your location with, and tap”share location”. You can select for how long a period you want to share your location.

    Obviously this relies on your phone having a data connection.

    To me it seems the most simple and widely available solution without needing special apps, logins or subscriptions.

    <span style=”font-size: 12.8px;”>+1 for Real-Time GPS tracker 2, it’s free and emails out a web tracking link so recipient(s) don’t need to have any particular software installed or mess with logins into services.</span>

    Road ID is good. You can set ride time etc and if you dont move for 5 mins while riding ( you can alter this i think) it sends a text to your loved ones saying that you are laying in ditch bleeding profusely 😊 or that you are in pub and forgot to turn it off, see above.
